"Mademoiselle Mars (1779–1847)" is a lithographic portrait created by François Séraphin Delpech, a French lithographer known for his portraits of prominent figures of his time. The subject of the portrait, Mademoiselle Mars, born Anne-Françoise-Hippolyte Boutet Salvetat, was a celebrated French actress who achieved significant fame during the early 19th century, particularly during the Napoleonic era and the Restoration period.

Mademoiselle Mars was renowned for her beauty and talent, excelling in both comedy and tragedy. She became one of the leading figures of the Comédie-Française, the state theater of France, and her performances were widely acclaimed for their refinement, wit, and nuance. Her career spanned several decades, during which she played a variety of roles, becoming a symbol of French theater and a muse for playwrights and artists alike.

Delpech's lithograph captures Mademoiselle Mars in a pose that reflects her status as a distinguished actress of her time. The artwork is a testament to the popularity of lithography as a medium for portraiture in the 19th century, offering a more accessible and widely distributable form of image-making compared to traditional oil painting. Delpech's work contributed to the visual culture of the period, documenting the likenesses of cultural icons for posterity.

The portrait of Mademoiselle Mars by Delpech is significant not only as a work of art but also as a historical record of a leading figure in French cultural life. It provides insight into the fashion, aesthetics, and societal values of the era. As with many of Delpech's portraits, it likely served to bolster the public image of the sitter, while also fulfilling the public's desire for images of celebrities and public figures.

Today, the lithograph is an important artifact for scholars studying the history of theater, portraiture, and the broader cultural landscape of 19th-century France. It is a valuable piece for museums, collectors, and enthusiasts interested in the intersection of art and theatrical history.
